This study reports on an experiment examining the impact of iconic graphics on participants’ understanding of domains represented by entity relationship diagrams. Cognitive load theory and the cognitive theory of multimedia learning are used to hypothesize that iconic graphics reduce the cognitive load of model viewers, leading to more complete mental models and consequently improved understand...

This paper discusses the design and development of a low-cost virtual reality (VR) based flight simulator with cognitive load estimation feature using ocular EEG signals. Focus is on exploring methods to evaluate pilot’s interactions aircraft by means quantifying perceived under different task scenarios. Realistic target tracking context battlefield designed in VR. Head mounted eye gaze tracker...

Cognitive load theory (CLT) can provide guidelines to assist in the presentation of information in a manner that encourages learner activities that optimise intellectual performance. It is based on a cognitive architecture that consists of a limited working memory, with partly independent processing units for visual and audio information, which interacts with an unlimited long-term memory. Acco...
